OVERVIEW
Relentless: Ranger is a fantasy rogue-lite action platformer. Slash, shoot, sneak, die, and repeat as the next strider to brave the impossible mission. You play the Rangers of Anorien, who must find the last Seed of the Goddess Tree within the heartland of evil before all is lost. Each ranger lives once. Once he dies, you must select another to attempt the quest.
EXCEPTIONAL SOUL-LIKE COMBAT
Bows, swords, spears, and spells. Use a variety of weapons and magic to overcome your opposition in tough but fair combat. Beware that brainless button mashing will get you nowhere fast. You must also utilize dodges, jumps, and impeccable timing if you hope to survive.
THE TICKING CLOCK
In a land where the Dark God reigns, not only are the odds stacked heavily against you, you must complete the quest in a limited time. With each passing day a ranger spends, the Dark becomes more powerful until the challenge becomes inevitably insurmountable. Will you spend extra time to heal in town? Or will you trudge on to save time and hope you get lucky?
RANGER SUPERPOWERS
Twelve disciplines to train from Archery to Beastmastery to Druidic magic. Combined with inherent talents and flaws, each ranger will play differently. Perhaps you will pick a Legolas-like archer of death who can plow through levels through sheer arrow power? Or select one who relies more on stealth and magic? Or another who relies on the aid of forest animals?
SURVIVAL MANAGEMENT
Rescue villagers, find artifacts, or just invest money in the town. You will be rewarded with better weapons, more potions, and beds with less fleas. Help make the town a better place and the mission less unreasonable, if not for you, at least for your successors.
CHOOSE YOUR OWN PATH
Choices matter in addition to the procedural generation of fate. Each ranger will encounter different people and situations during his quest. Depending on your choices, his subsequent path will be altered, taking him to new locations, dangers, and treasures. Although all seek the Seed, no ranger will travel the same path.

STORY
The Dark God has won. The Goddess has been slain. The halflings exterminated, the dwarves turned, humanity enslaved, and the elves fight a losing battle against an endless horde of orcs, demons, and other monsters besieging the Pennisula of Silmerana, the last stronghold of light.
Although pockets of resistance wage a desperate guerilla war against the Dark, all know it is only a matter of time before the Dark God and his generals complete their campaign to eradicate all opposition to his power. Darkness covers the land. Hope is dead.
That is, until a vision by the Child Prophet, who saw that the last Seed of the Goddess Tree lies somewhere hidden in the Forbidden Vale. If recovered, a fork in Fate becomes possible. Else this land will forever live under the torment of the Dark God. Someone must venture into the heartland of darkness, brave overwhelming odds, and find the Seed. An impossible mission.
You are a Ranger of Anorien, who for years fought the Dark from the shadows. You pride yourselves as an especially stubborn part of the resistance that refuses to die. Yet in your hearts you despair. You and your brothers heard the call and as one, decided rather than a slow death, you will attempt this final cast of hope.
You vow, “We shall not stop until the Seed is found or the last of us lie dead. We shall be Relentless.”
